Great. Does this support persisting to disk RDB[1] or AOF[2]? Pricing seems reasonable? 1GB of Redis data is $0.049 per GB hour. 730 hours in a month = $0.049 * 1 * 730 = $35.77/mo. 5GB of Redis data is $0.027 per GB hour. 730 hours in a month = $0.027 * 5 * 730 = $98.55/mo. [1][2] https://redis.io/topics/persistence

The standard tier is supposed to persist data (and it did, during maintenance events - it was an alpha, so yeah - there was no data loss), but not sure what they use as the logs are not yet available.

It's not data persistence per se, it's just replication to another instance in a different zone. Persistence is not currently available but plans are in place.

UPD: replication -> persistence not available

You mean persistence is not yet available?

"Redis persistence" to AOF or RDB is not currently available (since we are not even in Beta yet), but standard tier instances persist your data in another zone in case something goes wrong with the master instance.

For comparison, here are the prices for managed Redis instances in Azure (Central US) [0]:

Basic Tier (single instance, no SLA)

1GB - $40.15/month

2.5GB - $65.70/month

6GB - $131.40/month

Standard Tier (Primary/secondary replicated instance, SLA)

1GB - $100.74/Month

2.5GB - $164.25/month

6GB - $328.50/month

Premium Tier (Cluster, w/persistence, SLA)

6GB - $405.15/month

May I ask what is the planned use case for the RDB/AOF replication? Are you expecting to have access to the snapshots while the instance is running, or you just need them for import/export or durability reasons?

Yup, but your original post said replication isn't available yet. I think you meant persistence.

Thanks for pointing that out. Fixed.
